Identification of Comfort Aspects of Architectural Students' Residence for School from Home Activities

Covid 19 pandemic affected learning methods from offline to online. All parties involved in learning need to make various adaptations so that the learning process can run effectively. Students are required to focus on education at home (School from Home/SFH). The architectural learning method prioritizes practice in designing called Studio Class. It causes problems when it comes to changing the learning method online. Place of residence also plays an essential role. When they are SFH, the students live in private houses, rented houses, and boarding houses. The purpose of this study is to determine whether characteristics of the learning room environment (thermal, lighting, and audial) in the living space have a major impact on the success of SFH learning. This study employs quantitative research to ascertain the variables affecting environmental comfort through online questionnaire data. The thermal element is determined to have the greatest impact on overall comfort. Audial comfort is critical in breaking students' concentration when performing studio exercises. In general, students who live in boarding houses do not feel disruption from surrounding noise, however students who live in private homes do.
